Chapter 197
“Useless trash, go away, go away!”
Soon, Madeline heard Joseph’s yell.
What a pity to those ladies!
Not only did they kiss the wrong person, they were even shamed by him.
“Okay, come on, let’s get up. I’ll bring you home.” Madeline patted Wayne on the back.
“Okay!” Wayne nodded and got up.
Madeline could not help but feel pity for him.
An admirable and respectable assistant who was usually well-dressed had his face filled with lipstick stains. His shirt was also ripped off by those bunch of ladies.
He looks utterly miserable.
When Madeline led Wayne out of the room, she saw the ladies crying and sobbing while sitting on the ground.
She could not help but comment, “Gosh, Wayne, you should’ve entertained the ladies. You were too much!”
Joseph tried to explain himself, “Maddie, this is a misunderstanding. I did not hire them to do that.”
“No, I don’t trust you, but it’s fine. What’s done is done.”
She shrugged and looked unbothered.
Joseph was furious as he did not know what to say to her.
His perfect plan was ruined!
How disappointing!
“Oh my wife, you’re here.”
Noah appeared from the staircase. He was wearing a casual black suit and looked handsome as usual. He gazed at Madeline with adoration.
He stood next to Madeline, took off the blazer, and put it over her shoulders.
“Thank you, my dear husband.” Madeline touched the blazer that was still warm from his body temperature and gave him a bright grin.
Her grin was so delightful yet playful.
Joseph knew it was an act but could not help but fall for her smile.
He imagined himself stretching his arms and pulling her close in an embrace.
“You’re welcome, my love.”
“Are you done with your tricks? It is not necessary.”
“I apologize for that. It’s a must to show affection to our wives, right, brother?”
“Brother?” Madeline was stunned.
They both have the same surname. Madeline should have figured it out already.
If they are brothers, why do they look so different?
There were many questions in her head, but she did not dare to ask any.
“Let me introduce him to you. He is my non-biological brother,” Noah put his hand over her shoulder and looked Joseph in the face, attempting to put Joseph in an awkward situation.
“Noah Quincy, you!”
Noah’s words have touched his sore spot.
“Am I wrong, brother?”
“That’s right, we are non-biological, and I’m totally fine with that! You don’t need to call me that.”
Her words seemed to cheer him up as his face appeared less tense.
He then tidied up the blazer Madeline threw over and covered her long, lean legs.
“It’s getting colder now. Please cover yourself up. Otherwise, you’re going to get arthritis when you’re old. Do you understand?”
He nagged at her while tucking in the blazer.
Even though there was a heater in the car, his warm gesture made Madeline feel even warmer inside.
“I didn’t intend to hide the matters between Joseph and me from you. When the right time comes, I will tell you. Just know that he is dangerous, and please stay away from him.”
Noah looked at her affectionately, and his voice was so gentle and soothing.
Madeline could not find any reason not to listen to him.
“Fine, if that’s the case, I should not be nosy anymore,” Madeline replied, but her eyes reflected her sentiments.
Noah’s love and affection were something that she dreamed of five years ago.
Now that she got what she wanted, it somehow felt unreal. Not to mention that he fell for her first.
Deep down, there was still a bit of sorrow.
Was Noah falling in love with her now?
That was what she wished for five years ago.
How about Madeline?
She swore to herself to never love him again and it took five years to get over him…
“Useless trash, go away, go away!”
Soon, Madeline heard Joseph’s yell.
